AMVSEHEXTS.
Frou-Fron at the Academy or Music.
The comedy ol'Fron-Frou, which was played
j for the first time at the Academy or Music last
night, is thc result or the Joint labors of MM.
Meilhac and Halcvy, two or the most popular
play-wrlghts ot the gay capital or Prance. In
Paris it was the rape, end. when transported to
this country, lt achieved, in its English guise,'a
speedy and flattering success. The vcrsiou usually
played ia this country is that or Augustin
Daly, the dramatic author, now the lessee of the
Firth Avenue Theatre, New York. But wc may
be permitted io loubt whether that accomplished
dramatist has retained the lire and sparkle or the
original, as well as Is done by Miss Laura Keene.
This lady is a good linguist, ns well as a polished
actress, and in he- translation or "Frou-Frou,,,
her dramatic experience gives point and zest to
her philological knowledge. No one but a master
of stage situation as well as of the French tongue,
could have so happily translated Into English the
peculiar events and indescribable dialogue of the
curious original.
The words "Frou-Frou," although almost un?
translatable, arc really an Onomatopoetic phrase,
describing thc rustling sound made by a silken
robe, or mantle, as Its wearer sweeps along
corridor or over polished floor. As a nick-name
it may bc taken as thc French equivalent or
the Buglish "Harum-Scarum." The play to which
it gives a name, ls a family picture arter the
French style-that ls with as muc? rashion.andas
little family as an indulgent society will allow.
The heroine Cilberteor Frou-Frou (Miss Keene.) ls 1
a dashing high-spirited girl, w ho cares little for
love and less for lovers, yet sccs matrimony in
thc distance as an unpleasant something 1
which cannot well be avoided. Le CoitUe de 1
Tutreas (Mr. Otis.) ono or the golden youths who 1
are the pet horrors or the drawing rooms or Paris, \
ls desperately enamored or Frou-Frou. Ilia '
youthful loves, of which he has a score,
Like a heap or paper set on dre,
A moment flash, and then expire. I
But Frou-Frou is his grande passion, and, In real ?
earnest, he demands permission to become a 1
suitor for her hand. At the same time Savorys !
(Mr. Mordauut.) a rather goody and impassive i
nobleman, makes a similar proposition. Both i
gentlemen are referred by the ratherorFrou- i
Frou (Hr. Wallis) to the lady hcrscir. One or .<
them, Sartorys, asks thc counsel and aid o? Louise 1
(Miss Anderson,) the sister or Frou-Frou, who is i
herseir in love with her slsterTt attractive lover, i
Sacrificing, however, her own happiness to the I
welfare of her sister, Louise promises to help I
Sartorys, and does, in fact, persuidc Frou-Frou '.
to marry him. The loveless marriage ls tolerably i
unhappy. Frou-Frvu ls affectionate to her child by I
jerks, and to her husband not at all. The gay world i
and its distractions are all her care. A sent?- i
ment ?f weakness causes her to avoid Valreas as t
much as possible, but she is pretty often in lils 1
company. Sartorys, who is Jolly miserable, at i
last persuades Louise to make his house her 1
home. This good young person takes the keys,
and LB SOOI found to hold the first place in thc love ?
orFrou-FroWs little son. Frou-Frou reels that i
Bhe has done her best to be proper. But this san- i
not last, and now that her sister is under the roof i
otSartorus, the man whom she always loved; now i
that she has usurped the mother's place lu the af- i
rectums of the child; and, most likely, the wire's I
place In the love ol the husband, Frou-Frou tells I
Louise that she will no longer prevent thc fruition 1
of her happiness. This highly Gable announce- i
ment means that Frou-Frou elopes with Vah eas. I
After a few weeks of delirious bliss, thc pangs ot i
remorse close upon the heart or the erring Frou- i
Frou. As soon as he recovers from au illness
taused by her m!sconduct,5nrfo?7/sseeks his wife,
requires her to retain a dowry or two millions, '
which she had scornfully returned, and allows it !
to be known that he intends to challenge Vatreas. '
This, the agonized pleadiug of Frou-Frou cannot '
prevent. The duel is fought, and Valreas ls killed. I
Overwhelmed with shame and contrition, Frou- i
Frou ls on thc point of death, when, at thc in
iercession or sister-in-law Louise, her Injured <
lusband assures her or his forgiveness. Happy i
it the last, Frou Frou dies In the arms or her In
locent child and grief-stricken husband. This is <
he whole plot, wb'.;h has been thoroughly angil- i
:izcd in tone, and adapted, as much as might bc,
o the wants and conditions or a society some- i
vhat different from that ror which the play was <
written.
Thc play, as presented laat night, excelled In 1
irtistic acting, as well as in the dramatic situa* <
dons with which it abounds, any sensational '
lrama that we have yet seen produced iu Charles- <
on. The part or Frou-Frou ls admirably suited '
o display to good advantage Miss Keene's versa* ?
lllty as an actress.
First the gay and heartless Parisian "girl or the
period"-then the frivolous wife and fond, yet j
rareless mother; then the victim or mad Jeal- i
>usy which eventually leads her to plunge
uto the abyss, on the brink or which she i
tad long been lingering, and finally thc i
wretched and disgraced exile from her home,
to which she returns only to die, a repentant and i
'orgiven wife-these developments or the plot ar:
forded scope ror all thc Intensity or acting, ror |
which Miss Keene is so justly celebrated. Indeed, ?
io fiuished and natural washer person at iou or i
Frou-Frou, In all the successive pluses of her j
;arecr, that it would be hard to say In which of ,
ibo scenes her excellence was most marked, ir i
we arc to judge by the enthusiastic plaudits or
(he audience, her greatest triumph was <
when she fiercely confronts lier innocent sis- I
:cr, and, in thc bitterness or her heart, I
reproaches her as the author or all her woe.
Not only at this point, but again and again was '
Hiss Keene summoned before the curtain by loud j
and prolonged applause. Mr. Mordaunt's good I
taste and judgment made the most or thc telling (
part or Henri de Sarton/s, and, In the scene in
which he casts off hts stricken and despairing wife,
as he goes forth to slay her seducer, his actiug
was really grand. Misa Anderson played the
part of the hapless Louise with much feeling.
The rest of thc cast was unexceptionable;
but thc Interest or thc drama hinges almost
entirely upon the three leading parts
wc have named. The mfse CH scene was
good, and the view or Venice, with the gon?
dolas plying to and fro in the distance, would
fiave done credit to any New York theatre. The
performance, as a whole, waa so signal a success,
that we shall be sorry If the company should leave
Charleston without repeating it.
For to night wc are to have the ever pleasant
and popular play of Peg Wofflngton.
Signor Rn bl nt.
